Tank was never really at the top, the way to beat Tank was to let him gas out and then take him to the ground. People remember Tank for the few quick KO's he had. However he was never anything to impresive. The only differance between old tank and "Old" tank who fought Kimbo was that he had grey hair and gassed faster.

At this point he has no shame and doesn't exactly care if he adds another loss to his record. Tank takes the extra cash and goes to the bar :)
